kabba7: Were those people kneeling down to plead or they were sharing some idea and simply got carried away when trying to get closer to give better explanations ? This guys don't seem begging,if anyone want or need to smear Okorocha they can go ahead and do that but this guys dont seem to me as being under any form of pressure .
I Use to think the Igbo's are more intelligent than what I read daily on Nairaland this days .

Bros forget talk, they knelt down either voluntarily or by command. lmo state is not the only place this is happening only that this one leaked.

hahaha l laugh at all of you because you don't have an insider into your state government. Every state government in nigeria do what you just saw in that pics.

Try ask someone close to your governor, sons or daughters how people you respect kneel before governors and their families.

You will spit at many so call big men in your town.

All these answers came up because we were told it was a riddle. What a way to disrupt human reasoning.

the word riddle created all this problem, not the figures nor the grammar.

Take the word riddle away ur half correct without solving it.

Balyz: Those of us conversant with math think the correct answer is 6000

know one that has a little knowledge of basic mathematics will arrive at 6000.

bastien: do u know have seen these question since last 3month before now,I even post it on my page I admin on facebook,so I can tell u,I'm not wrong

that a question a existed for a lifetime doesn't make it correct until it is correct. no matter who have seen it, it is who shows interest that points an error.

bastien: guy u b BIG OLODO,which sch u dey attend self,tricky maths will never give u the real answer!

The first sentence said it all.......TAKE "1000" it mean take it way,and if its taken it will be 0,the plus 0 to the 40,and others


I hope u understand now!

smart man where did you take the 1000 away from, no trick in the maths. the trick is in the statement that there is a trick then u tricked urself with wrong reasoning

bastien: u can't add what u have taken,u said take 1000,always know that take,is still take away in maths

can you take out something from what doesn't exist. take 1000 from where. the riddle is not mathematical

bastien: sorry I made a mistake,I was fast typin,I wanted 2 ryt 4100,if read d quest,u will see take 1000 and add 40,u are not suppose to add the 1st 1000




Thanks

where do u add the 40 to?

My neighbor came back limping some nights ago.

Guy what happened to your leg, we asked. He started.

Menh as l was coming home l was flagged down by a group of military men and l thought they were the police because it was a little dark. l drove pass them only to be stopped by the second group.

They all army men descended on me with beating, each one of the trying to exceed the other in brutalising me. After the beating l was told to do frog jump for a pole for 30 times.

After sometime l couldn't move again, they asked me to enter mine car and drive off. on seeing l couldn't move the bundled me into my car pushed start my car, l drove straight home.

Eyaa, we had to massage the guy body before he could have some relief.

2 days after this guy came to pick me up and we were cut in a traffic jam. In the opposite direction we notice some army men trying to get our attention.

Imagine the question one of them asked.

o boy how your leg na? You don dey Waka again?
Na so they drove off.

This guy was surprise they could recognize him.

All the army men in our street need to be taken to a battle field even if it is an artificial battle. They need to exercise their body with fight or war.

A younger brother of mine was coming home only to meet a group of police men who enquired why he should be walk near the bush. He was searched and nothing was found on him as he tried walking away he was acussed of being a member of already held marijuana smokers who were in the police van. He was told to remain silent on trying to protest, for anything you said will be used against you in the court of law.

He was taken to the station, lost his phone through the process and had to pass a night at the cell.

He said on entering the cell, the new in mate started making noise. Tabling the injustice and Bleep up of nigeria. The best alternative became biafra immediately. All this while they were making noise and disturbing everyone. no one talked to them. After they calm down, the real business started.

Settlement and purchase of accommodation for the new cell in mate.

prison /cell na another country be that. lf your not on a special duty/assignment no go there.

Oya share your own.

after reading comments l began to think.

must nigerian president give a speech at that funeral.

Do all reciprocate good gestures? Do at all time?

Have we forgotten the face off between nigeria and south african. Do you think the have forgiven us.

What is this superior complex about nigeria self

Who told you nigeria is the giant of african. Stop deluding yourself every nation is on her own (oyo) .

you must expect the front sit everytime, jesus said so too.

blast bullet.

What is you contributions to the oneness and progress of nigeria since you were born a nigerian.

presher: op u get time

Everyone has same 24 hrs, only a few like this guy uses theirs to impact their world.

Its not the first strike that breaks the rock but the repeated little strikes that lands on it.

Turbocharged: Partnership is really what we need to. build a rock solid economy for ourselves.
Though I am not in Nigeria now but Im really insterested in this. Send me details to:

Alright, we have someone outside the country in the group already.

Joagbaje: It was not a coincidence that Jesus entered onto ministry at age thirty. The reason was that 30 years was the age of adoption into maturity and responsibility in the the bible days.

For example Levites enter priestly office at the age of 30. Joseph became ruler in Egypt at age 30,David became king at age 30 ,

Genesis 41:46
And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.

1 Chronicles 23:3
Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward:and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.

2 Samuel 5:4
David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
priest enter into office at age 30 . And Jesus began his ministry at age 30 is not a coincidence

Luke 3:23
And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

Why must they wait till age 30.

what were dey doing before stepping into office at age 30.

what is synonymous with age 30

JMAN05: @op

God has a timetable for him in the hebrew scriptures. It was not time for him to be known as the messiah and John the baptist hasnt sone his part as the prophesy shows. So God does not over step His timetable. But he still showed that he had spiritual knowledge before his ministry.

Bros talking about time, l don't see Gods time as a future thing but the present. God is not in the future but in the present as shown by jesus teachings.

Gods time is always NOW

not tomorrow or next.

Image123: Jesus was busy pleasing God for 30 years na. Is that not what He expects from us? He wants us to follow Him as our example in the daily things we face in life which He also faced. is not expecting every follower to walk on water or feed 5000 with five loaves or raise the dead or any such thing. he expects us all to live as He lived and walk as He walked so that the Father can say of us "I am well pleased".

Pleasing God is the first step and walking on water or feeding the multitude is part of the big picture too.

lf l may ask, How do you please God?

Kei144: If you have experienced living under the control or restraint of the Spirit, even though present human experience is not perfect, you will be able to extrapolate and imagine how it will be in a perfect situation. For example, recently I started praying Col 3:8-10 into my life before the breaking of each day. So, I go like this, "In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I put off the old self from me by the Spirit of God. I put off from me sexual immorality, impurity, fits of rage (anger), pride, debauchery and the like by divine power through the Holy spirit. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I put on me the new self created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness, by the Spirit of God. I put on me love, peace, joy, kindness, meekness, gentleness, goodness, self control, patience, perseverance and the like by the Spirit of God." After this seemingly just speaking words, as I go through the day, I actually see myself operating in holy mood all the time. If me that has been used to sin could get the Spirit to do this in me, imagine what it is like for a person that is not used to sin and who does not need to pray for the Spirit to uphold him.

This doesn't mean you don't meet temptation, but that your better equipped to overcome them.

Jesus wasn't much different from any of us until after baptism.

coolslim: Jesus did not perform the first mirracle at mery's request.Remember jesus asked'Woman,what busines do i have with'
men has only being tool for accomplishing Gods will so was mery.I wonder why Abraham like mery.can we say she is more faithful.Abrahams faith in our creator is hardly comparable.why not ask him to rather intercede for us for sure without him their won't be a mery.he is the root.

where did the bible ask you to pray to jesus. we pray to God our father through jesus.

where do Mary come in the picture.

Kei144: Yes, He was not tempted. Until He received the Holy Spirit, God gave His angels charge over Him, to protect Him. But once He received the Holy Spirit, Satan was allowed to go near Him.

This is implying that jesus never did anything as a child or a youth because every action has two possibilities with is temptation.

jesus had a normal youth life but his documented life started at his ministry.

jesus was tempted as he was at home.

wat do u think of the cajoling his brothers gave him telling him to go the wedding, nd he told them his time has not come but their own time is always available.

gratieao: Have you ever asked a friend for a favor? Or have you ever said to someone “Please pray for me?” Mary and the Saints are our friends in Heaven (unless you don’t believe that they are truly alive in Heaven). As such, they see God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – face to face. Who better to pray for us and present our prayers to Jesus “in person?” Mary and the Saints “do” nothing of themselves; they all point to Jesus. Remember what Mary told the servants at the wedding feast at Cana: “Do whatever He [Jesus] tells you.” Open your mind to the fullness and richness of His ENTIRE family, and the wonderful ways we can love and help each other!

are u saying mary and the saints are more compassionate than the father who.gave his son without our asking.
we are not even supposed to pray to jesus nt to talk of to angels, mary or the saints.

gratieao: We reverence her, as we do all the saints, but true worship is addressed to God alone. Otherwise, we would fall into idolatry. Christ is our only mediator (1 Tim. 2:5-6) with the Father, but Mary can intercede (pray for us) with her Son Jesus. Jesus worked his first miracle at her request ( Jn. 2:1-12). Just as we can ask other members of the church on earth to pray for us (1 Tim. 2:1; 2 Tim. 1:3; Phil. 4:22), so too, can we ask members of the church in heaven to pray for us (Rv. 5:8; 6:9-11; 7:10-12; 8:2-6; Mt. 22:31, 32).
Hope i have answered your question?

sorry mary holds no intercessory office in heaven. Jesus himself said,"ask the father anything in my name". so y go through mary. is the father wicked or what. Why can't we go to the father direct as he said we should. l want to know y we need a mediator?

clans: first of all, no catholic bows down to Mary quote me, what we do is call genuflecting the same you do to your obas and you chiefs and even the average elderly Yoruba man or woman you see on the street. as for Mary being the way the truth and the life you said so yourself NO catholic has ever said that, because we are sinners and have fallen short of the glory of God we go through his mother to INTERCEDE for us on our behalf. Mary was specially conceived without original sin you and i was born with, she was specially designed as the vessel to bring the savior into this world, as for the name Mary, you are right it could as well be Martha or even chrissy3, but it wasn't . and if you say she was just a human, y weren't YOU chosen to bring the savior into the world. i beg of you change you ideology about all this things. ignorance is bliss they say but it is stupid when you base your arguments on them.. have a nice day

hmm are you saying mary didn't have father too like jesus.

hmmmm, wonders in christiandom.

hmmm, do you know mary had other children beside jesus with her husband joseph.

hmmm

ufobabe: i was really happy and kept starring at my baby. I was overwhelmed wit joy dat i cldnt sleep immediately. So dis whole baby came out of me, i kept wondering how big God cld be to form a human inside another human being. So i am somebody mummy too. Lol. I was overjoyed

wow, so happy for u dear.

just imagining the creativity of God in children creation.

Slowpois0n: I have never seen something as useless as this before

look harder, u will find the usefulness

funshybam: I laff in Lebanese

are you a lebanese?

Kei144: Jesus was born like every normal baby. He grew up like every human being; not like God. His difference though is that He was not subjected to some normal problems that other human beings face, such as sicknesses and accidents, because He is not of the lineage of the fallen Adam; He was a new human seed, meant to form a new human race--a new Adam. Being an Adam, He knew no sin until God allowed Him to be tested.

He. 5:7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.
He. 5:8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered.

Jesus' growing up was not easy though. The evil forces knew who He was and what He was in the world to do. They never missed any opportunity allowed them by God to make life hard for Him. Do you know how I learned this? God had made it clear to me that I would become a great evangelist with worldwide renown. So, I began to bask in expectation of soon glorious future. But what I saw next was endless hellish experience. Around 2 am in a night in October, 2004, I was awake on my bed pondering the hell that my life had become. Where is God in all this? Then the content of Hebrews 5:7-8, quoted above, filled my mind, and it came with a new understanding that I never had before about the life of Jesus Christ before He began His earthly ministry.

Mt. 3:5 People went out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region of the Jordan.
Mt. 3:6 Confessing their sins, they were baptised by him in the Jordan River.

Mt. 3:13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptised by John.
Mt. 3:14 But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptised by you, and do you come to me?”
Mt. 3:15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfil all righteousness.” Then John consented.
Mt. 3:16 As soon as Jesus was baptised, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of
God descending like a dove and lighting on him.
Mt. 3:17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”

Jesus went to John the Baptist for baptism, just like every other godly person did in those days. It was in the process of the baptism that God begat Him as His Son. The Jews at that time had this ceremony of adoption of sons when their sons reach some right age, during which fathers give their sons their inheritance. God did same for His human Son.

Mt. 4:1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil.

It was after God had adopted Jesus as His son that the devil was now allowed to tempt Him, just as the first Adam was tempted. He performed quite unlike the first Adam. Heb 5:8 suggests that Jesus' performance in the face of temptation is due to His prior exposure to suffering. I myself am a witness to this fact. If Adam and Eve had known suffering, instead of only rosy life in the Garden of Eden, they probably would never have eaten the forbidden fruit. I pity today's Christians who want to make heaven, but who also have eye on material prosperity; the two can never go together (Mt 19:23)

Are you saying jesus was not tempted as every one else till he was baptized?

POPE II: Holy virgin Mary is the queen of heaven

before or after her death?
